Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is a tough game to quantify. On one hand it’s a stupidly huge, idiotically beautiful open world game that is a blast to explore. On the other hand, it has the same Ubisoft checklist-style game design ingrained into that world. And on my protruding Kuato-like growth’s hands it is one of the…

Not every game is a huge hit. Some good games just go under the radar a bit. One particularly good hidden gem is The Darkside Detective, an episodic point-and-click adventure game that’s just the right for the last few days of October.

The best part of Monster Hunter is encountering new monsters and seeing how they behave. Each monster has it’s own personality and patterns you have to lean to best them. The added quirk of Monster Hunter: World is how the monsters also interact with the environment, and one fight really highlights that addition.

Sea of Thieves recently updated with The Hungering Deep, a questline that required players to team up to fight a giant shark boss to get cool new swag. I wrote that the mandatory cooperation had made the game much more friendly and peaceful. Well...it didn’t last long. A good number of players have back to blasting…

After sacrificing one crew to a Kraken, having a ship eaten by a giant shark, and limping back to base in a sinking galleon, I finally beat the otherwise peacefulThe Hungering Deep expansion in Sea of Thieves. Grogs all around!

“Shoot first and ask questions later” is the normal way to interact with random strangers in Sea of Thieves. But the latest update to the game has brought players together in the name of shooting other things.

If there is one thing most people agree on, it’s that Sea of Thieves doesn’t have a lot of Content™ and that there aren’t enough Things To Do®. The good news is that Rare recently announced its plans to update the game with new stuff. And while that’s good news, I’d like to throw my pirate hat into the ring and…

Sea of Thieves is a fun game that you should really play with other people. So who’s taken up the pirate life? Anyone looking to get a crew together? Anyone got a hook hand yet? Why is everything so expensive?

Gravity Rush 2 is great. It’s so good that it can be really hard to recommend the first game just because it is pretty rough by comparison. If you feel like playing the sequel (and you should) but feel like passing on the first, here’s a collection of things you ought to know about the messy world of Gravity Rush…

2017 was such a flurry of good games that you’d be forgiven if you can’t list every good game that came out that came out that year. But Gravity Rush 2 seemed to have been erased from the public conscience moments after it was released in January. It’s a real shame because Gravity Rush 2 is one of the most engrossing,…

With the Xbox One X coming out soon, I was able to snag a deal on an Xbox One (Geeze, that’s an annoying name. Do people still shorten it to Xbone?) that was too good to resist. So now I have a weird problem: what games should I get for this thing?

Overwatch, a multiplayer shooter, has a story. And with last week’s release of another animated short to remind the masses that Overwatch is a multiplayer shooter with a story comes the familiar drone of those wondering why Overwatch has a story when it is a multiplayer shooter.

I find the core of my base situated on top of a cliff, flanked by a suburban house and a basketball court. The storm is in the south, meaning the husk hordes will have to funnel through a narrow hill to attack my core. It’s the perfect place to build a gauntlet of death. I build towers and traps that destroy all the…

Based on the trend of subscription numbers, the glory days of the WoW are waning. Games have changed. For an MMO to survive anymore it’s almost mandatory to have a free-to-play model and an in-game shop. Wold of Warcraft -the still undisputed heavyweight champ of the genre- hasn’t embraced that model completely, but…

Grandgia: Super-Continent of Possibility! After millennia of countless wars, crumbling empires, and colossal catastrophes, the land of Grandgia has now entered an era of relative peace. Now -more than ever- is the perfect time for adventurers to set out and find the secrets and treasures that were lost to years of…

Everybody has a bad day. Maybe work was stressful. Maybe you didn’t score well on a test. Maybe your didn’t get a good night’s sleep. Maybe you’re faced with too many problems and don’t know what to do. Whatever the case for your blues, I know there is always one thing that can pull me out of it: Katamari.

When the lights are dim and the trees near bare, When the gamer looks for a Halloween scare, Oft goes a game lesser known Than those that are more often shown. Hear the tale of a game with horror and action Based on a film based on a Disney attraction.

Very few games are based on the works of Shakespeare, and most of those games don’t even have robot suits. Fortunately there is game that can satisfy your need for iambic pentameter and mechanical terror. Also, it’s a choose-your-own-adventure book.
